Welcome to the club Thinus
We have decided not to proceed with re accreditation
After careful discussion with all our doctors, nurses reception &
management staff ( most of whom have been with us for the initial &
subsequent charades) the general opinion is that it has made no
difference to our level of patient care and has involved considerable
expense and angst for all concerned.
The sterilisation process was one of the proverbial straws- have you
checked the documentation they require?
We are telling all the bureaucratic leeches & drones to bugger off
and we will get on with providing quality medical care without them -
as we managed to do before

We are in the process of preparing for accreditation - I get my
sterile equipment sterilised at the Skin Clinic where I work in the
morning (for the next few weeks then only at our own place). The
Skin Clinic has had their sterilisation setup inspected by ACT
health and they comply with all the ACT rules and requirements BUT
they are not AGPAL/ other organisation (whatever they're called)
accredited.
AGPAL refuses to accept this and I now have to try and source a
facility that is accredited or only use disposables- I can use the
local private hospital but they charge $33 per pack that is simply
too much - I'm paying $17 at present. I can cope with disposable
instruments for simple procedures but when I'm doing face or neck
work I want a decent fine set - does anyone know if these are found
in disposables and where/ how much ?
I really dont know if I should even proceed with this accreditation
- absolute BS !!
